about

written by Marion Sunshine
Ella Fitzgerald summarised the central role of alcohol and drugs in African American communities during the 1920’s and 1930’s in her 1938 blues anthem

lyrics

but I aint gonna holler cos I’ve still got a dollar and when I get low oh I get high
my man walked out well you know that aint right but he better watch out if I meet him tonight
I said when I get low oh I get high
all this hard luck in this town has found me nobody knows what troubles are all around me oh
Im all alone with no one to pet me
that old rocking chair ain’t never gonna get me cause when I get low oh I get high

Forged in Rhythm

supported by 5 fans who also own “When I Get Low I Get High”

I love this ENTIRE album!!! How to chose a favourite (Well Read Baby?!) Keenan's album is a tour de force of songs that were written now, but he's so totally internalized the style that they sound like they are from another century! The musicianship, arrangements, and the voice of Laura Windley are great. This is my fave vocal showing from Laura, too! (and she has lots of great records) Can't recommend this highly enough Alex P
